DosFreak 2 Posted April 27, 2001 Dangit, we could have had the first Non-Photorealistic rendering video card if 3DFX hadn't died! Share this post Link to post
SHS 0 Posted April 27, 2001 Well died good Q as far some of us know but this did come from somebody that work for 3dfx so it hard to say if it old or very new picture but then againe 3dfx Tech support is in fact still runing. The real Q is did nVidia get all of 3dfx technology or just some it. Share this post Link to post
clutch 1 Posted April 28, 2001 Great, another card that 3Dfx can deliver late. Oh, wait, that's right they aren't in business anymore... Share this post Link to post
